Stephen Fry To Voice Another Game

18
After his work on LittleBigPlanet, Steven Fry has announced via his Twitter page that he is voicing yet another game.

"Voiced a game character today. Can't say any more, I'm afraid. NDA and all that. I say, though – isn't it dark? I mean golly, eh? Sheesh."

Too soon surely? Plus the PSP one is still to launch.

The 'dark' comment makes me think could it be a horror? I can't really see Fry voicing one though.

He says he voiced a character so, no not LBP2. He could mean the game's dark or the character's dark-and is the "sheesh" and "golly" relevant? Knowing Fry's love of words and the cryptic I'd guess at both!

What kind of character would say "sheesh" or "golly"? And in a dark setting? Has he been doing work on Pefect Dark for the XBLA perhaps or a character in Darksiders?

You'd imagine it would have to be a UK developer, mind, with his talents being SO English.

I tell you this:I reckon it's most likely to be LA Noire. "sheesh" and "golly" seem more likely words for a game set in that time period and the "dark" could be the Noire of the title and film noir inspired game, no? Plus, there's ALWAYS a serious English posho in those old noir films, isn't there? I can easily see him playing, say, a Hollywood type-a producer/director/actor perhaps? And the Aussies(TB) get ALL the BBC stuff so would know Fry as well as a UK dev I think with R* also having a heavy UK heritage with GTA being a Scottish invention and studios at Leeds, Edinburgh and elsewhere in Britain.

Anyway, that's the best-if slightly hopeful-thing I can imagine at present. Any better guesses? Woldn't be hard as I was reaching!

1.3 - Epic Mickey?
Just a thought but isn't it meant to have a slight darker feel and doesn't Goofy say Golly?

Just a musing......

1.7 - Its entirely possible
That its just... you know, dark rubbish weather when he said that. Fry is sure to be cryptic, he loves that stuff, but still... theres just as good of a chance that its just dark outside, this is twitter we are talking about not a press release.

He could be back in fable3, since his character only left the country.

4.1 - ...funny you say that...
When I think, my thoughts are in the voice of Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) from American Psycho. I'm also partial to a bit of Huey Lewis...

it has nothing to do with LBP. he clearly says he voiced a game character. he was the narrator in LBP. something played in the dark obviously

The twitter page says the comment was from around 24 hrs ago. So seeing as the clocks went back an hour on Sunday, when he posted his comment it would have been far more darker than it has been for the time of day. Maybe?
